Done. And the GOP. And Drudge, Fox, CNN, Washington Post, USA Today, my two local papers, Daschle's e-mail. See for yourself what Daschle said in '98 when Clinton wanted to force regime change: In 1998, Clinton passed the Iraqi Liberation Act which called for regime change, but decided to bomb Serbia instead. Daschle supported that resolution by saying the following:

"Look, we have exhausted virtually our diplomatic effort to get the Iraqis to comply with their own agreements and with international law. Given that, what other option is there but to force them to do so? ... The answer is, we don't have another option. We have got to force them to comply, and we are doing so militarily."

And what is Daschle saying now? Now that we have a Republican in the White House who is finally going to do what Clinton should have done ten years ago? Daschle says that he’s “.. saddened that this president failed so miserably at diplomacy that we’re now forced to go to war.” Wow, that’s quite a switch from his Clinton era pronouncements, isn’t it?

Daschle goes even further. He is getting on the bandwagon early to lay the blame squarely at the feet of George Bush for any fatalities American troops may suffer. Daschle doesn’t blame Hussein for failing to live up to his agreement to disarm. He blames Bush for responding to Hussein’s failures and threats.

It's even more insidious than that. They (Dems) are hoping for a terrible event they can use for political advantage. My dear God, when will people wake up and see what these enemies of America would wish upon us for their political gain.

Thanks for the quote.

Although I'd already emailed Tom Thumb, I did again, copying and pasting his words from your post. Thanks for your help.

Can you imagine if one of these Amerca-hating Socialists were in the White House right now?

Thank God we have a president who has the clear-sightedness and courage to acknowledge what is happening in the world and act on it, rather than giving this nation away and calling it "dilomacy".

Thank you, that was what I mentioned in my e-mail.
